As I'm sitting there in the PT clinic telling them how I'm exercising my foot in the pool, the lady next to me is pissed off that she broke her ankle a month before me and she's still limping and using a cane. I told her I couldn't figure out how to walk w/ only 1 crutch or a cane so I just ditched it and walked slowly, like a turtle.
Everytime my PT moved my foot this way or that, she kept asking if it hurt or painful. I said NOPE. I asked her why and she said that most of them don't have the flexibility or range of motion and usually scream that they were still in pain. I told her they were probably lying and wanted to stay at home longer. Or collect L&I as long as possible. My doctor ended my L&I claim just a little over a month! :(
So the good news is that my rehab is exceeding their expectation except with a little scarring and slight swelling that's typical.
Woo Hoo! Neil's sister sent me a shitload of chinese herbs and remedies to take during my recovery. I can't say that was it but I think the whole comprehensive approach did it!
Now, what to do with the scar!?
